Description
A true vintage beauty with an ultra cool look, tone & feel. A dynamite player's grade guitar delivering those signature Jaguar sounds. Fully inspected & set up ready to play straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: Typical play wear for its age with just the right look - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches, weather checking & some finish wear. The Olympic White finish has aged beautifully over the years & mellowed into more of cream color with nice variegation throughout. There's a tiny crack at the base of the headstock just below the low E tuner. It's purely cosmetic & doesn't affect playability or sound quality. Overall the guitar has a great look to it with a gorgeous patina.
